Preparation Tips Turn the grill on and set the temperature to medium heat or 375 F. If using a charcoal grill, let one side of the grill reach medium heat after approximately 30 - 60 minutes. Place the cooked sausage on the medium heat side, searing for 1 - 2 minutes on each side. Once both sides are caramelized, move the cooked sausage to the cold side of the grill to finish cooking for 10 - 12 minutes until fully browned. To prevent overcooking, watch the meat closely, since overcooking can cause the meat to split, losing its juicy flavors and becoming dry or charred. Serve while hot and with desired garnishes or sides.

The Eckrich Heritage Peter Eckrich arrived in America at the age of 17, eager to seek his fortune. In 1894, he opened a small meat market in Fort Wayne, Indiana. There he created many of the sausages he enjoyed growing up in Germany. Peter took great pride in his craft. His dedication paid off. The business grew and before long, Peter had opened up a second shop as well as a plant to supply his growing wholesale business. By 1932, Eckrich meats were nationally recognized for their great taste and supreme quality. Through it all, these things have never changed. The craftsmanship. The care. The pride. It’s as strong in our company today as it was in Peter Eckrich’s little Indiana shop, 120 years ago. More Options From Eckrich Hungry for more delicious Eckrich meals?
